nVent CADDY 512HD Heavy-Duty T-Grid Box Hanger, Pre-Galvanized Spring Steel

nVent CADDY Heavy-Duty T-Grid Box Hanger, Pre-Galvanized Spring Steel

The nVent CADDY Heavy-Duty T-Grid Box Hanger is designed for fast, tool-minimal mounting of electrical and low-voltage boxes directly to suspended T-grid ceiling systems. Formed from spring steel and finished pre-galvanized for corrosion resistance, this heavy-duty hanger clips onto the ceiling grid tee to hold boxes securely in place during rough-in and throughout the life of the installation. The spring-tension design lets electrical contractors position boxes quickly in commercial and institutional ceilings without drilling, welding, or additional fasteners, helping keep suspended-ceiling electrical rough-in on schedule and reducing the labor typically spent fitting individual box supports.

Key Features

• T-Grid Mounting: Clips directly onto standard suspended-ceiling T-grid tees, positioning boxes exactly where the ceiling grid layout dictates without extra hardware.
• Spring Steel Construction: A spring steel body supplies the clamping tension needed for a firm, tool-free grip on the grid tee.
• Pre-Galvanized Finish: The pre-galvanized coating helps resist corrosion in typical indoor ceiling-plenum environments.
• Heavy-Duty Rating: Built to carry box loads through the demands of commercial, institutional, and other suspended-ceiling construction projects.
• Tool-Free Installation: The spring-action clip seats onto the grid tee by hand, speeding up box placement during rough-in and reducing the need for separate fasteners.
• Reusable Positioning: The clip-style mount lets electricians reposition boxes along the grid as layout needs change before final fastening, adding flexibility during rough-in.
• Ceiling-Grid Compatibility: Sized to engage standard T-grid tee profiles found in commercial suspended-ceiling systems.
